12 Ways To Bring Blue Tones Into Your Home

Why paint a room in Blue? Why not, after all blue is the worlds most popular colour!

It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith and truth. Blue is considered beneficial to the mind and body. It slows human metabolism and produces a calming effect.

Today we are featuring 12 rooms showcasing how beautiful blue can be, all painted in Benjamin Moore colours. We threw in a few fun front door colours in blue too.

LIVING ROOM

Alfresco 1672 is a luxurious shade of deep, dusty blue that inspires a sense of relaxation. Pair it with white and gray accents for a calming space in your home. (via @brightbazaar)

Not sure if you can handle a whole room painted blue? Try one wall, it will make an impact and if you bring in a few other accents (like area rug) it ties the room together. This wall is painted in Kensington Blue CC-780.

Consider painting your ceilings, moldings, and doors to help transform your space. Make the walls pop with Teal Ocean 2049-30 on the walls.

BEDROOM

Pair neutrals and pastels with a deep hue, like these bedrooms painted in Hale Navy HC-154, to create a calming space for sleep.

BATHROOM

Blue is a classic color that will never go out of style. Use Fiji AF-525 for a different take on tranquility in your bathroom. (via: @apartmenttherapy)

This bathroom is so fresh and so clean, with it’s mix of watery blue and white colour scheme and large windows letting in the sunlight. It’s not a surprise this colour is called Clearest Ocean Blue 2064-40.

FRONT DOOR

The sky is blue, so blue will always work outside…the only factor is your brick, stucco or siding. Paint your door blue to say “Home Sweet Home” before you even step inside. These doors are fun and fresh, from left: Blue Danube 2062-30 & Brilliant Blue 2065-30.
